My Mom is 50!

My mommy turned 50 yesterday! To celebrate we had a SuRpRiSe PaRtY for her on Saturday, and she was so surprised. It was a lot of work, but so worth it to see the look on her face.

Thank you to all of her friends and family who came to make her day special - it is just what she wanted- each of you!

Mom and her cute parents - thanks for driving all the way from Manti!

Every party needs lots of yummy food.

Have I mentioned that my husband is an amazing cake maker! The cake was beautiful and tasted divine!

Loved the Italian Soda Bar.

I feel so blessed to have my mom as my very best friend! Mom - thank you for your sweet spirit, your strong example, your gentle kindness, and your eternal & unconditional love! Here is to 50 more... love you to the moon and back!

Best Friends

One year...

One year ago today...ok one year and 3 days ago today, I said YES! 

Let's face it, that was by far the most wonderful decision of my life up to this point, and  I am so very very grateful for every day i've had with the man of my dreams! 

9/20/2012 Chance is a little nervous at this point in the evening...

I feel so very blessed to have him by my side in all that we go through and have such a comfort in knowing that the challenges we face in the future can be faced together.  I am also thrilled to spend the holiday season together without the stress of planning a wedding. 

I can honestly say I don't know what I would do without this strong, loving, generous, spiritual, handsome, smart man in my life. He makes me so very happy and is such an awesome example to me. 

Sure do love ya babe!

So proud of my EMT

For those of you who don't know my husband too well, let me just say he is a bit of an over-achiever.  I know every woman probably thinks her hubby is Superman, but I Know!

Even with two jobs, and school he still has time to visit new families in the neighborhood, help out {a lot} at our aunts weddings, take my brother Jaden to soccer practice and take care of me after surgery.

And to top it all off - he is now a certified EMT!

Way to go babe! I'm so proud to be your wife!
